A correspondent in Gladstone sent through some info and pics of the inaugural Virgin ATR service from Gladstone last week.

I've posted this on the CQ Plane Spotting Blog - http://cqplanespotting.blogspot.com/

Evening all

I had an exciting day being part of the launch of Virgin Australia's ATR operated Emerald services today. I flew on DJ1256 EMD-BNE in the morning on VH-FVH, and then VH-FVL as DJ1261 BNE-EMD this afternoon.

I will do up a proper trip report later, but I have posted a few photos of the day on the CQ Plane Spotting Blog... http://tinyurl.com/84swzrf

All the best to Virgin on this exciting venture!

Good one Qantas, the cheapest one way fare from Cairns to Hamilton Island is $307.

You would think there is opportunity for VA to jump onto the route with ATR72's... ?

QF Link uses the Dash8-300 and on one occasion I saw they operated a Q400.
